Need help matching x264 profile

[koobluh]

Hi all,
I recently got an android tablet and it seems to be very picky about the type of x264 files that will play smoothly. I found a sample file that runs perfectly so I used MediaInfo to identify it's codec and settings. I'm now wanting to convert several videos of mine to match the encoding settings used for the first video but I can't seem to figure it out. Anyone able to help me out? The 2 things in bold are the ones I'm having the hardest time finding the settings for in the AVC x264 encoder settings. Below is the info from MediaInfo:

--keyint 60 --min-keyint 1

Wow that was fast...however I'm using this GUI (see below). I checked all the tabs and couldn't find anything about keyint's. Do you know where it'd be?

GOP size minimum 1 , maximum 60

But there are dozens of other parameters that might be causing incompatibilities...

You're missing the metadata in that mediainfo report that contains the encoding settings used

e.g it might look something like this

Writing library : x264 core 89 r1462kMod 7fcffde
Encoding settings : cabac=1 / ref=4 / deblock=1:-1:-1 / analyse=0x3:0x133 / me=umh / subme=10 / psy=1 / psy_rd=0.50:0.00 / mixed_ref=1 / me_range=24 / chroma_me=1 / trellis=2 / 8x8dct=1 / cqm=0 / deadzone=21,11 / fast_pskip=0 / chroma_qp_offset=-2 / threads=1 / sliced_threads=0 / slices=4 / nr=0 / decimate=0 / interlaced=0 / constrained_intra=0 / bframes=3 / b_pyramid=2 / b_adapt=2 / b_bias=0 / direct=3 / wpredb=1 / wpredp=2 / keyint=24 / keyint_min=2 / scenecut=40 / intra_refresh=0 / rc_lookahead=24 / rc=2pass / mbtree=1 / bitrate=25000 / ratetol=1.0 / qcomp=0.60 / qpmin=10 / qpmax=51 / qpstep=4 / cplxblur=20.0 / qblur=0.5 / vbv_maxrate=40000 / vbv_bufsize=30000 / ip_ratio=1.40 / aq=1:1.00 / pulldown=0 / nal_hrd=vbr




Did you search for "android compatibility settings" ?

[koobluh]

Hmm there isn't anything like that in the mediainfo report...

[poisondeathray]

Well I guess you're going to be doing a lot of experimenting then...

Unless you search for and find: "x264 android tablet settings" on google

Maybe handbrake has a preset ?

You can ask on Doom9 as well, the developers post there, and some of them might have android tablet or know of what settings to use
